Los Chispas Part 2 - reunions!


Shane, Ruth and Kye had lived with us for a week, 2 1/2 years ago, when they were on 'home assignment' from Spain. During that time Aidan and Kye hit it off. They are only 6 weeks apart in age and became firm friends!

They had a lovely reunion over the weekend. They played, had baths, watched movies, slept in the same room, chatted, and dressed up together. We loved seeing our boys together like that. We're so glad that the Sparks will be in Australia soon so the boys can continue their friendship!



I realised there had been another 'reunion' when one of my boys asked me today 'mum, did you and Ruth stop talking all weekend?' And the answer is, maybe not! (except when we were asleep!) It was lovely to catch up on news, and discuss everything from parenting to books we've read to mutual friends to issues we're thinking through to challenges we've both had and much more! It was a real joy to do so and to pray together also. Ruth is so honest and has a transparent love for Jesus, it was refreshing to chat with her.


Of course, Michael and Shane caught up too... but I'm not sure what they talked about... I was too busy talking and listening myself!
